Phosphate pads are great for lowering your phosphate levels in your aquarium. Excess phosphates in the water column can cause algae growth and compromise fish health. Adding phosphate absorbing filter pads to your filter can ensure your tank remains healthy. They can easily be be cut down to the size of your filter for a perfect fit. Live plants prefer at least some phosphates be available in the water column, so this filter pad is best used in tanks with elevated phosphate levels.

Chemical Filtration for Phosphate Removal

Chemical filtration has the ability to remove pollutants and certain chemicals from the water. To prevent high levels of phosphate from building up, you can preventatively install an phosphate filter pad to absorb the phosphate and reduce algae growth. Measure phosphate levels with a phosphate test kit to make sure there is still enough to feed your plants.

Customizable to Fit Any Filter

Whether you have a hang-on-back, canister, or sump filter, this phosphate filter pad can fit them all. Just grab a pair of scissors and cut the sponge into the right shape. When the chemical filtration is used up, simply dispose of the old filter media and cut out a new section from the pad to use.

Black beard algae is a bummer, adding this pad to my canister filter gave me the advantage I needed.

Phosphate reducer

I have two ten gallon aquariums with Tetras, plants, rock, gravel and spiked phosphate levels. The media pad works great to reduce the levels while being an added filtration. Definite good buy.

Be prepared

Recently, I purchased from the Aquarium Co-op the course sponge pad, fine pad, carbon infused pad, and phosphate media pad. To date, I’ve not needed any of them, but I can explain my reasoning.

For tanks > 29-gallons I use hang-on-back filters. These allow easy addition or subtraction of various filter inserts and bio-rings. Tanks < 29-gallons have sponge filters . Besides these I keep Shark Pro internal filter/pumps and box filters, which when needed can accommodate the pads noted above. This arrangement permits the shark pro to be used for additional flow and temporary filtration using any of the pads, or a box filter with appropriate pad can be added to any tank, as needed.

The Aquarium Co-op pads are important additions to my fish room to be used for normal replacements, or extra water quality maintenance and emergencies.
